HIGH MAINTENANCE MEMORIAL

In case you missed this, the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York will cost around $60 million per year to operate, according to the foundation that manages it. The number was first reported by the Associated Press (AP) on Monday. The Foundation did not reply to a request to break down this number, but the AP reports that $12 million per year will be spent on security and $4.5 to $5 million per year will go toward operating the giant water features that mark the footprints of the Twin Towers.
